Liverpool lost their Europa league game against a stubborn team from the Serie A Atalanta without scoring a goal to give the fans that chance of holding on to something in going into the second leg, a loss many never saw happening.
Today the reds go again to face another struggling side, Crystal Palace, this game can reduce their chances of closing up the gap with the league leaders (Arsenal) and the pressure that will be on Klopp and his boys is as high as when they were losing to Atalanta 0-3, but can Crystal Palace cause another upset by having a draw or even winning Liverpool in today's early kick off (we know how badly Klopp hate early kick off)?
I don't think Klopp will be getting a positive results in both games (Palace and the return fixture against Atalanta) but the focus is the Crystal Palace game.
Although the visitors (Crystal Palace) have been going off and on with good players on the mix or should I blame it on bad luck that's making them not to be consistent?
I have this feeling that it is either this game or the next that Liverpool would be having their next loss, to me I'd give this game a draw or Palace getting all 3pt.

The Liverpool game I still don't see Manchester United playing a better football to win that game, the defenders of UTD are as confused as the coach and is like ETH is afraid of keeping Rashford on the bench, Anthony is doing better than the England player Rashford  of recent and it pisses me off when he (Rashford) just walk freely on the pitch without any contribution.
Was saying if Manchester United had taken those chances like playing well they would have won games they went out to play a draw, by now we would have been seeing them competing for the top 4 but for now they're going nowhere.

Manchester United are not serious in this encounter against Bournemouth, is as if is a switched kind of play with Bournemouth playing like Manchester United and we get to see UTD struggling to defend and playing so poorly like the Bournemouth side. Honestly this game is something Man UTD are suppose to use to their advantage and I see them qualifying for any Europe competitions but it seems they're not ready.
The midfielders of Manchester United are so sluggish especially Casemiro, age is really dealing with his movement on the field of play, his marking ability has dropped compared to when he first join Man UTD, and Rashford to me is just like a shareholder, no much work just feeling less concern. If eventually they manage to qualify for champions league next season they should make a big change in their squad.

Is never a luck to play against Salernitana because it has to be, Lazio was unlucky in front of goal if not the goals would have been more than 4. We still have those teams who will play against Salernitana without scoring more than 2 goals and their performance would be very poor or they can even play out a draw.
So Lazio are trying to prove a point and if a team who hasn't been performing well start doing something better than before you have to applaud them and going against those teams I think they (Lazio) can get something positive out from it if they continue playing the way they did last night.

Lazio played like a team who's about to be crowned champions and I could see Inter Milan in them as they played with so much flexibility and calmness when they're with the ball and I ask myself why are they not giving Inter Milan a tough time this season? If we have to use a particular game to judge teams I'd say Lazio are better than Napoli this season but is like whenever the Lazio side play against a smaller team they just take advantage of the fact that they're the bigger boys but you see tonight's performance, it was outstanding for the Lazio side.

I'm not the OP please 😁.
But there are some advise a newbie would be give to newbies and it would be like is coming from a scammer, imagine a newbie telling another newbie on the Forum that he's the best Bitcoin holder and can sell Bitcoin at cheaper rate to him or her and when both have an agreement the adviser can play a smart move without dropping the Bitcoin or even refunding the money back and we shouldn't forget that some of these newbies that are advising have bad intensions on the Forum, we need to be careful.

I believe you're a UTD fan and from what you have seen tonight you'd believe that Manchester United are not in any way close to being in the same level with Atalanta, that's by the way.

Liverpool played just the way I expected but the second leg is going to be hard for the Atalanta team because Liverpool will come out like a wounded lion to get a draw but I don't think it would be a game of clean sheet like we saw today.
Klopp is planning on securing that number 1spot in the EPL table and the game they lost tonight would be a thing to worry about and if care is not taken they (Liverpool) might lose their next EPL game because they would be having players with tired legs, fatigue might come to play, in this case let's see how they'd manage the situation at hand.

Man UTD are suppose to lose that game and if you match UTD and Atalanta I'd go for the Italian side to win because they're better than the red devils but that's by the way. A draw is highly possible to happen and if eventually it happened I don't see Liverpool getting any chance of coming back when they visit Atalanta.
Klopp will try to be careful like I have been saying, when that happens don't be surprised if he starts making wrong changes, he shouldn't make that mistake of starting those young lads against their opponent tonight because if he does, it won't go down well and if Atalanta gets the first goal you'd see Liverpool on the panicking end trying to get an equalizer which will be hard.

Don't be too comfortable with how Liverpool have been handling other teams in the UEL and this is where their biggest challenges start to get tougher, Klopp need to be very careful in the remaining part of this competition because if you noticed Atalanta only have this UEL to struggle for, the Italian league they have no chance of winning it and they have to play to stay in the top 4 of the league to play champions league football next campaign that's if they can keep up but Liverpool are still eying the EPL trophy and this very one so who needs to be mindful of how they use players to avoid injuries, Liverpool boss or the Atalanta boss? I'll leave that to you, now you see why the visitors are not to be taken for granted? They'll come all out to get something in this game.
Anfield can only affect Arsenal that's if the Gunners visit that stadium they play like thrash as of then but what I'm driving at is, you see these Atalanta, they're ready to cause much damage to this Liverpool side no matter who's at home.
To me I don't think Klopp can win any trophy again other than the one they won against Chelsea, aside from that I don't think it will happen for Liverpool to win any trophy.

Uche my senior oga no be lie you talk and from how things be for here e make here look like say outsiders fit come post for this place and e dy pain me say some of this our senior piple wey don tey for this place, wey follow struggle to make here be wetin e be today no fit speak out say make everybody respect this LOCAL BOARD to maintain the pride wey we get as Nigerians just as other local board them dy do.
Make una go somewhere likeTurkish local board weda you go fit understand wetin them dy talk without using Google but if them come here na so all these piple wey we get as brodas and sistas go dy use English as if them dy wen English enta our contri, to say the truth this one follow for why this place no dy as fun as e bin dy before and some members (like Mr Obari and the rest of them) no get that joy to dy come here as before too... Make all of una wey think say una sabi English do well oh... Make pride leave una oh.

Liverpool should be seen as one of the favorite to win the UEL and not the best team in the EPL that's going against Atalanta, the Liverpool side have scored many goals before getting to this stage of the competition but that doesn't mean they're going to drop more than 2 goals tonight.
If you feel that Liverpool are going to win the UEL don't forget that they haven't faced one of the best team in the Europa League this season and they haven't lost a game since the beginning of the season even in this very competition (if I'm not mistaken) talking about Bayer Leverkusen, they're the best and you shouldn't forget that we have Ac Milan, Roma and Marseille that they're also a threat so is never going to be easy for Liverpool, they (Liverpool) might not advance into the next round.

Liverpool will be playing against Atalanta in tonight's encounter but we shouldn't have much faith with these guys  (Liverpool) because we see them scoring much goals before getting to the quarter finals, playing like they're in the final or something but let's not forget that Liverpool are playing with caution, Klopp won't want anything to affect any of his best players since they played a draw against UTD and they're second on the log in the EPL.
Klopp would try to get his boys to start leading the game from the first half but I see the visitors giving Liverpool a bit of a headache and if some how the away team somehow gets a win in this first leg like 0-1 then there would be much pressure on Liverpool, well it won't be too easy for that to happen and I feel the return leg won't be easy for Klopp and his boys (that's if Liverpool lose 0-1) but I'd say a draw is likely to happen in this encounter.

You're correct on the Chelsea side having a lot of issues to handle, he can't be their Messiah but if he eventually plays for Chelsea I believe he'd be seen as a players that doesn't have anything to offer like players like Jackson, Caicedo and some other new guys in the squad who ain't playing to their best, this guy V. Osimhen will be a flop of the season and he won't be like the guy we all know in the Serie A, he won't be doing any of those scoring at Chelsea. The blues isn't a bad club but they lack that coordination, no leader in the team and they're just playing to survive and nothing more, no ambition at all. We should know that the take over killed the team honestly and the owner doesn't have any idea on how to run a football club.
I'd advise he either go to Liverpool, Arsenal or Man City like you said because these two teams have come past that rebuilding stage, they're teams that are set for any player to blend in with young and experience players to make the team much stronger but between these 3 teams I'd say the Emirates should be the best destination because they're up for the task ahead with a bright future to help him become better than he is now.

The game was a bit exciting but I'd continue saying it that PSG are not meant to be in the champions league, both teams have so many young players in the the squad that they can't make a complete pass in front of goal and PSG have lots of unfamiliar faces that doesn't have enough experience in the champions league.
If these are the players that do dominate the French Ligue 1 then the other teams in the Ligue 1 are not serious, PSG's best set is that of Ibrahimovic, Cavani and the rest of them, if those guys can't win the champions league back then, then I don't see these set of players doing it either.
I can't really tell if Barcelona was that aggressive in that encounter or not, the Spanish side was playing without pressure when they were losing the game until they equalizer while PSG was having runners who could not get something positive like I PSG style of play became irritating.
I now see why Mbappe wants to leave, the club can't give him what he wants and the players are not there to help him get that UCL trophy. The return leg is going to be the last bus stop for PSG, Barcelona will beat them starting from their midfield just like they did in the first leg to the goalpost.

Person wey give you Uche really know why, you deserve that name my broda, hurry hurry make me post am, I think say all don set but nothing spoil... You do well make the pigin continue dy go to make our local board come back to life.

No be lie you talk dia, wen I talk say nah we dy use our hand take punish ourselves in side moto one man say na lie say nah Bola Tinubu, I just laf so for dis matter who be this landlord dem?  no be same piple wey dy for dis our contri? Dem dy feel say as long as e no dy affect dem say wetin dem dy do na better thing, how human being go say make him fellow human being dy suffer after dem go blame government.
Landlord dem no know say ones oil touch one finger e go touch d rest, if the house na old house and them wan renovate am no problem to high d rent fee but if the house dy in good condition I see no reason why dem go increase the rent say nah Dollar, wetin concern Dollar for this matter? 95% of the problem we dy face now for dis contri no be dollar cos am na we just wan act like say we wise. I pray make any of una no make mistake offend una landlord oh if not na quit notice.

My broda na over do dey worry some piple for this contri, wetin concern fuel and house rent? Unless them wan renovate am oh. This subsidy removal suppose affect moto piple, goods but e no suppose affect reach landlord their side. Na house human being go stay oh so wetin d contri give us e affect us so make them no take am too personal.
So you say if landlord spend like 250k for hospital bill the next day him go increase house rent becos him wan gain back? no nah e no suppose be so. Me I still dy talk am say wen dis fuel matter come back to normal things go set well and dollar no go do anything about am, abi na today we start to hear say dollar high but we still dy live ok, make the fuel fit go back to the main price or even lesser changes go dy.

I agree with you oh becos e affect everywhere but for this house own, you talk about to build say the materials go dy costly I agree, what about house wey dem don build since before all these high rate of dollar matter come to play, dem still dy high the price as if them wan renovate the whole compound. My broda piple wicked oh, something wey no get to do with high rate of dollar dem go say nah Dollar nai make, so we no go rent house again nah if so.



Na true sometimes landlord them dy use becos if one person or two persons wey wan enter the compound take increase things make e be say them gain more and na so some piple wey see say e hard to get house outside na to stay endure am since them no get choice again. Anything wey make person leave em current place of stay say na new place him dy find na big wahala for spending.

D way things dey increase for dis contri surprise me well well, e get so many things wey we no suppose mention say na becos dollar don increase nai make.

Make I use this housing as the matter for ground, how piple dey take find house to rent but dem no see the one wey fit their pocket moni abi we go say dollar nai cos that one too? House rent don increase and before you go get house for this contri with this current situation e go hard.
So I dy ask if na becos of say dollar don increase nai make landlords and landladies get mind to increase everything wey concern their house; house rent don go high, agent fee don high, agreement fee don high lawyer fee self don add moni, no be say everything dy the house of toilet fit no make sense and other things wey no good dy the house, wey you fit pay up to 300k...
I dy ask nah Dollar cos this one too bcos plenty piple dy homeless becos them no fit afford wetin house owners dem dy call as price.

Wetin be the main reason for this particular one?

In as much as they have like 2 games to be crowned champions I still feel that they were looking down on their opponent (Udinese) that's why it was hard to beat them that easy and it reminded me of when they played Atletico Madrid in the second leg of the champions league, they underrated them and they (Inter Milan) paid the price of being kicked out of the champions league.
On their way to be crowned champions I feel they're going to be delayed just like it happened to Napoli last campaign where they had to draw a game and they waited for a week to accomplish their goal. Inter Milan can't wait to get hold of that trophy and from how things are going judging by how they played their last game I think they might draw or lose their next game to delay it a little bit more.

I think the mod have a reason for doing so and if you check properly you'd notice that there are many threads that all mean the same thing but the topic is different, is like it repeats itself in different form, mods have to act fast before we start seeing same thread in the same section.
We do have a thread for EPL discussion that have been there for long but someone opened same EPL thread in the same section and I was thinking if is suppose to be so. I don't know if some members who knows that this thread is there and they go ahead to open another just get followers 🤔, I don't know if that's their aim.
